But Mr Galloway can expect a thunderous reception from those he impressed with his performance before a Senate committee last May.<br><br>In a statement, Mr Galloway, the Respect MP, said: "I'm really pleased and excited to be going back to America to campaign against this illegal war and occupation. And to have Jane Fonda join me is fantastic. I'll be able to get that autograph at last."<br>He added: "I'm sure that when the full implications of the constitutional settlement lashed-up by the puppet Iraqi government are understood that opposition will grow massively."<br><br>Mr Galloway, whose speaking tour, Stand Up and Be Counted, starts in Boston on 13 September and will end at a rally scheduled for 24 September in Washington, said he had received more than 20,000 messages from US residents asking him to return. He will also be promoting a new book, Mr Galloway Goes To Washington.<br><br>A tour organiser, Chris Dols, said: "People want to hear Jane Fonda and what she has to say about the war. That's worth hearing, and George Galloway has a lot to say about it, too."</em><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--> <br><br> Link ; <!--EZCODE AUTOLINK START--><a href="http://news.independent.co.uk/world/americas/article308466.ece">news.independent.co.uk/wo...308466.ece</a><!--EZCODE AUTOLINK END--><br><br> Im wondering personally if Galloways tour will actually be sanctioned by the PTB in the sense that We recently questioned him regarding his thoughts on 9/11 at a fringe meeting, and he said that "Al quaeda" done it <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :\ --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/ohwell.gif ALT=":\"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <br><br> He could of course just have been playing politics when he said that, but it did disconcert us somewhat.
